Digital Output: HDMI
This setting enables the HDMI output. The SDI output will be disabled. Depending on the
HDMI resolution settings, an SD version of the signal may be present in the composite output.
Resolution: select the desired HDMI output resolution. You can choose a specific
resolution, or select Auto. In Auto mode, the decoder will communicate with the HDMI
monitor, determine its optimum resolution, and provide a signal of that resolution. Note
the following for Auto mode:
o If the monitor requests a non-standard resolution, the decoder will comply, but the
composite signal will be turned off. If a composite signal is required, select one
of the standard modes.
o If the monitor does not complete the negotiation with the decoder, no video will
be displayed. Select a standard resolution in this case.
Format: This selects the output format. It is only relevant if the BRD is decoding a
Standard Definition (SD) signal and up-converting it to HD. Setting format to 4x3 will
produce a pillarbox image (a 4x3 image with black bands on both sides). Setting format
to 16x9 will stretch the image to full screen – this is recommended if the SD signal is
anamorphic.
Decoder Analog Audio Configuration
This area configures the analog audio stereo output. It includes the following controls:
Analog Audio Source: Selects between the first and the second decoded audio services
for the analog output.
Mute Left, Mute Right: these controls will mute the corresponding audio analog output.
